Re: Fjord Artwork
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] We have a friend in Idaho Falls that paints in oils. We have had her paint our horses heads on flat river rocks. I haven't seen such good work as far as confirmation goes. She is very accurate in her paintings. We sent her pictures and she has duplicated them beautifully. Her name is Marilyn Heed. Email me privately and I will get you her information. She is awesome. We have donated a couple of the rocks at Libby for the drawings. I think they were very well received. She also does paintings.

fescue grass
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] There was a notice on the USU website from Clell Bagley, the extension veterinarian at USU regarding endophyte toxicosis from fescue grass. The problem so far is in eastern Oregon. The endophyte is a fungus type of growth or spore which grows inside the seed of some grasses. When present in a seed, it is passed on to all seeds from the plant. It is good for the plant in droughts but is toxic in the grass that is cut and baled for feed. It makes the animals, cows and also horses, susceptible to heat, reduces feed consumption and thus reducing weight gain. May also cause the blood vessels in the extremities (feed, tail, ears) to constrict. This causes a lack of blood flow to these tissues, resulting in dry gangrene. Cold weather and winter accentuates the problem. It is expecially toxic to pregnant mares. The extension site at USU has more information. The address is http//extension.usu.edu/coop/ag/agbus/agline/ If you want to, please pass this on to the list. The grass hay or fescue can be tested to make sure it is endophyte free. Dr. Bagley warns that something that is a good deal may not be. -- OE & Pat Wilson UFF DA Fjords Hyde Park, Utah

Re: How to determine correct weight on Fjord
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Our friend and neighbor who is a vet and a Professor of animal science at Utah State University (USU) gave me an article about feeding horses from the Horse Industry Handbook it says (and I'll shorten it up just to include moderaterly thin to fat. Moderaterly thin: score 4 back negative crease, ribs mid barrel, see slight outline, neck is moderately thin. Shoulders (forerib) is moderately thin, whithers are moderately thin, tailhead has some fat. Moderate: score 5, back level (no crease), ribs (mid barrel) not see easily feel, neck blend into shoulder, shoulder (forerib) blends smothly into body, whithers are rounded, tailhead has moderate fat. Moderately fleshy: score 6, back slight crease, ribs not see but feel, neck has little fat, shoulders (forerib) little fat, whithers have a little fat, tailhead has moderate fat. Fleshy: score 7, back average crease, ribs barely feel, neck has average fat, shoulders have average fat, whithers have average fat, tailhead is fleshy fat. Fat: score 8, back obvious crease, ribs difficult to feel, neck is fat, shoulders forerib is flush behind, whiters are fat filled, tailhead is fat. I'm afraid both our Fjords fall into the fat catagory at the present time. Now that spring is here I hope we will get some of it worked off them.
